(Part 4) The Collapse of Duty: Reclaiming the Moral Order Between Men and Women
Civilizations rarely fall from one great blow. They fade when people stop carrying the weight of duty. Decline begins when strength gives way to softness and when comfort becomes a higher goal than character.

(Part 3) The Collapse of Duty: Reclaiming the Moral Order Between Men and Women
Every law is a teacher. It tells a people what their society values. It rewards some behavior and punishes others. It shapes the moral direction of the nation, whether its authors admit it or not. When the law rewards righteousness, virtue flourishes. When it rewards corruption, virtue dies.

(Part 2) The Collapse of Duty: Reclaiming the Moral Order Between Men and Women
Marriage is not a contract of convenience. It is a covenant of reverence. It rests on one simple truth: a man’s honor and a woman’s respect are bound together. Remove one, and the other will fall. A husband who is not respected cannot lead, and a wife who is not honored cannot trust.

(Part 1) The Collapse of Duty: Reclaiming the Moral Order Between Men and Women
For most of human history, marriage was not a lifestyle choice. It was a moral covenant. It bound man and woman to something higher than themselves, forming the foundation of family, community, and civilization. The vows were not about feelings, but about faithfulness. They were not written to protect comfort, but to produce character. And yet today, we live in a world where marriage has been emptied of its meaning, turned into a contract of convenience that can be broken “regardless of fault.”

Out with the Old - In with the New (For We Are the Only Solution)
When one season ends, another begins. It does not do to dwell on the past and forget to live. Sometimes letting go is best, no matter how much it hurts. Adios to the negative influences, to those who gain satisfaction from tearing you down, those who envy your joy and work tirelessly to see it fly away.

The False Dilemma
The Mirage of Choice Every day, whether in politics, philosophy, or faith, people are pressured into false choices. You either believe this, or you must believe that. You either accept this statement entirely, or you reject truth altogether. These are not honest discussions. They are traps.

Planting Truth In Hostile Soil
The Calling To Plant There has never been an age where truth was loved by the crowd. From the prophets of Israel to the apostles of Christ, those who spoke truth have always done so against the wind. Yet each generation faces its own form of resistance. Ours is not built on swords or prisons, but on sarcasm and pride. It mocks what it cannot refute and ridicules what it cannot understand.

AI And Apologetics
The Tools of the Age Every generation faces the same question in a different form: how should faith engage with new tools of power? In one era it was the printing press. In another, the radio or television. Today, it is artificial intelligence.

The Mirror Of Mockery
The Nature Of The Mirror Mockery has become the native language of the modern world. It fills screens, floods comment sections, and echoes through every arena where ideas are exchanged. What once required substance now survives through sarcasm. To ridicule is easier than to reason.

The Logic of Faith: Why Reason Without God Collapses Under Its Own Weight
The Myth Of Neutral Logic Modern thinkers often claim that logic is neutral, belonging to no belief system and standing above faith. They insist that religion is emotional, while reason is empirical. But logic is not a freestanding structure. It rests on foundations, and those foundations must exist somewhere.

The Man, The Mountain, and The Climb
". . .He keeps climbing because stopping would mean surrendering everything he has built, every promise he swore to keep. The air thins as he ascends, and though he’s given everything—strength, time, conviction—the mountain gives little back. Once, it felt sacred to climb.

The Lie That Divided the World
The world was promised deliverance in a needle. Leaders said the vaccine would stop the virus, save lives, and bring normal life back. The media echoed that message without question. Anyone who hesitated was accused of being reckless or cruel. They were blamed for the deaths of others. They were told they were the problem. Yet those who paused, questioned, and sought truth were not the danger. They were the last line of reason in a world ruled by fear.
